Microstructure, mechanical and fracture properties of groundnut shell ash and silicon carbide dispersion strengthened aluminium matrix composites

The mechanical properties of aluminium hybrid composites reinforced with groundnut shell ash (GSA) and silicon carbide was investigated. GSA and silicon carbide with different mix ratios (10:0, 7.5:2.5, 5.0:5.0, 2.5:7.5 and 0:10) constituted 6 and 10 wt.% of the reinforcing phase, while the matrix m...
